The Prince Albert Raider roster combined for a series of offensive fireworks on Saturday at the club’s annual Green and White Game.

Team Green jumped out to a 3-0 first period lead on route to a 7-5 victory over Team White at the Art Hauser Centre.

D-Jay Jerome, Jordy Stallard, Parker Kelly, Kaiden Guhle, Ozzy Wiesblatt and Carson Miller all scored for Team Green, while Curtis Meger and Brett Balas combined to stop 38 shots in a winning effort.

Brayden Pachal, Nikita Krivokrasov, Austin Crossley, Drew Warkentine and Devon Skoleski tallied goals for Team White, with goaltenders Josh Breznik and Andreai Proctor-Ramirez making a combined 35 saves.

The two teams entered the final period tied at three, but Team Green looked to put things away early in the third with three quick goals in a two-minute span.

Parker Kelly scored on a quick shot off a face-off to make it 4-3 before Kaiden Guhle’s point shot found it’s way through a maze of bodies make it 5-3. Ozzy Wiesblatt then deposited a rebound during a goalmouth scramble for a 6-3 lead.

Team White battled back to make it 6-4 when Warkentine fired a shot from the sideboards and into the top left-hand corner. The squad then pulled within one when Skoleski scored on a breakaway.

However that was as close as they got, when Miller sealed the victory with a goal with less than three minutes to play.

Saturday’s game was the last time the team will take to the ice before Sunday afternoon’s Young Guns game against the Saskatoon Blades. Game time is 1 p.m. at the Art Hauser Centre.
